Description

With the Consuelo Orchestra conducted by Victor Julien-Laferrière<div> The Consuelo orchestra performs the final evening of the Beethoven cycle.</div><div><br></div><div> Schubert's first symphony, composed at the age of 16, still bears the mark of Haydn's style. A sparkling work, it offers a foretaste of the 2028 celebrations for the bicentenary of the composer's death. But on June 11, it precedes the holy grail of symphonies.</div><div><br></div><div> Beethoven's Ninth Symphony is extraordinary. Its finale is a hit, and its orchestration, its structure, the immense ingenuity of its narrative progression before the final apotheosis... everything becomes the epitome of perfection, the ultimate quest for Wagner, Bruckner, Mahler, and other symphonists who would follow. An exceptional work, exceptional soloists, an exceptional orchestra, joined by the jewel of the Parisian choral scene, the COGE Philharmonic Choir.</div><div><br></div><div> Program :</div><div><br></div><div> Franz Schubert • Symphony No. 1 in D major D82</div><div> Ludwig van Beethoven • Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Op. 125</div><div> Interpreters</div><div> Consuelo Orchestra</div><div> Victor Julien-Laferrière • Director</div><div> COGE Philharmonic Choir</div><div> Grégoire Michaud • Choir Director</div><div> Camille Schnoor • soprano</div><div> Ambroisine Bré • mezzo-soprano</div><div> Benoît Rameau • tenor</div><div> Thomas Dolie • baritone</div>
